PowerBall: A South African Favourite
The PowerBall game has become one of South Africa’s most popular lotteries since its inception. Offering multi-million rand jackpots twice a week (Tuesdays and Fridays), the game has created dozens of overnight millionaires and continues to attract millions of participants every week.
In addition to the large jackpots, the PowerBall Plus option gives players a second chance to win using the same numbers, for an additional fee. Many consider it a worthwhile option given the number of lower-division payouts and frequency of wins.
